When I was in Gaza last month, I traveled to Rafah to meet some of the people who benefit from AFSC’s elder support program, which provides modest assistance to impoverished elderly residents of Gaza.  While many organizations provide assistance to people in Gaza, AFSC is the only group that provides for the specific needs of the elderly.
